Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council procured electrical installation and maintenance works for its services and property operations in Nottingham. The requirement covers new electrical installations, alterations to existing installations, project design, management, testing and commissioning, planned maintenance with remedial repairs, and reactive maintenance with remedial repairs. The appointed contractor must provide coverage during normal working hours and outside them, including 24-hour coverage every day of the year. The main work category is electrical installation works (CPV 45310000). This was a single requirement and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold open competition. The tender closed on 21 April 2026, and the award was made to COMELEC LIMITED. The contract was signed on 24 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2030, with options described as one year plus one year, extending the maximum period to 31 August 2032. Its value is £2,000,000 excluding VAT and £2,400,000 including VAT. Evaluation weighted price at 70% and quality at 30%. The contract is active and the award is active. Nottingham City Council is the buying organisation.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from Nottingham City Council for a broad electrical services capability rather than a one-off installation. A credible future competitor would need experience across new installations, alterations, design, testing, commissioning, planned and reactive maintenance, and remedial repairs. It would also need the operational capacity to manage work during standard and out-of-hours periods and maintain continuous, 24-hour, 365-day coverage. The requirement is suitable for smaller businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating that organisations of that type can compete where they can demonstrate the necessary technical competence, qualified staff, responsive service arrangements and ability to manage work safely across the council’s estate. The successful supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise.
